Good Day to you. My name is SDarkshine. I came upon the Senran Kagura series by chance when I saw the beginning of Estival Versus on YouTube. I wondered, even if it is by a mis-click, I wonder what is that about? So, I researched Senran Kagura, went to your Kagurapedia, and was quite impressed by how, despite the over-emphasis on mammaries, this series has a great story, not to mention an excellent OST. I checked out the characters considering who I can be, based on my blood type (O) and my birthday. The first one is Hikage, who to me is an awesome character - she might as well be my main/prime character. Second place is Bashou from New Wave (wah, they didn't have it Americanized, but oh well). Tied for third place, switching the birth date to my mother's, are Yozakura (second main), Ageha, Matsuri, and Tachibana. Characters that I like buT don't have my blood type or birthday are Murasaki, Jasime/Sayuri, Shiki, and Suzune/Rin. I am just starting to collect some merchandise for Senran Kagura. I started with the rubber coasters. Now, the next item that I want is the Homura Crimson Squad Panel Charm. Unfortunately, a friend of my stated that they sold the last one on Amazon on March 2015. I was devastated. I want all merchandise that has Hikage in it, including that one! So, I am just waiting that maybe, just maybe, they will sell it on Yahoo Japan. Of course, if someone is willing to sell one in any route, I'll gladly buy it. I even posted on Merchandise about it. Well, that is about it concerning me, the Hikage Fan. Thank you for the opportunity to meet you all. I hope we have a blast here at this SIA forum!

Welcome aboard = u=b
Glad to see you actually went and took a look. While the oppai is fantastic and all, the advertisements and such make it seem like that's all there is to it, and that really couldn't be any more wrong. If I ever lay eyes on what you're looking for, I'll drop you a heads up~
And of course, being the coolest admin ever and all, if you've ever got questions, feedback, suggestions, etc, just send me a PM and I'll take a look.

Hi-Hi~!
Thank you all very much for your warm welcome! It is real nice and sweet of you all!
I hope to get to know all the wonders of Senran Kagura!
Which leads me to this: Senran Kagura Cosplay!
I live in Florida, so if there are any people out there who cosplay as well, give me a chat!
...well, to be honest, it will be my first time cosplaying. I was going to cosplay as someone - what with my complexion and with a purple wig. Sadly, due to an incident, my purple wig got burned to a crisp. No wig at this time, save for a short black bob I had when I cut my hair very short.
Anyway, I wanted to try a cosplay that no one has yet done before (I'm gonna check out Japanese Cosplay websites just in case). SO...here are the candidates from Senran Kagura that I had in mind, based on my complexion:
- Sayuri
-Yuyaki - Ageha -Matsuri
Thoughts on Cosplaying one of These Characters:
Hmm...I believe that Sayuri and Matsuri would be the easier ones to do. The wigs would be easier to adjust and style, and I can improvise the outfits.
Oh, but Yuyaki and Ageha are really nice! ...But there are catches. For example, Ageha's hair is an olive green (more like Artichoke Green, but not very many people call it that...). And it was QUITE hard for me to find the right shading of her olive green hair (maybe found some on Amazon, but checking other sites).
As for Yuyaki, it's pretty much about creating a skin tight, skin color body suit, along with combining at least two white wigs to get her hair style.
Sayrui is perhaps more well known in America than the other three, but who knows.
Blood-Type and Birthday wise, they would be listed as: 1. Yuyaki 2. Ageha 3. Matsuri 4. Sayuri
Hmm, I will just have to wait and see what I can get....
But hey! Feel free to tell me your opinions, advice, and suggestions! I wanna hear from my Senran Kagura Family!

I would like to see a Matsuri cosplay. She's under appreciated in New Wave and I think you would pull her off very well!

Matsuri imo. Yuyaki as a backup option. I'm in Florida too, so if you ever go to any south FL cons, let me know, I might be there too.

Wow, wow, wow!
Already, I am getting some advise and suggestions! It looks like Matsuri is in the lead, with Yuyaki as the under-dog.
But hey! Why stop there?
I made a survey for everyone on SIA to participate in to see which character will be my first cosplay!
SDarkshine's New Wave Cosplay Decision!
Spread the word! Tell your friends! Help a fellow SIA Member decide! :like:
The survey will end on Dec. 4, 2015.
Thank you all in advance for your time and consideration.
I wish everyone a jolly, thankful Thanksgiving! <3

Hehe, I am back!
And now, for the results of the Cosplay survey (will input picture soon)...
The winner is...
Matsuri!
1st place with 40%
Aegha,Yuyaki, and Sayuri are tied in 20%.
If I added the comments from before the survey, Yuyaki would be in second place.
So, I will be striving to create my Matsuri cosplay. Overtime, I will post pictures of my progress. It will take a while, I'll admit, but I will do it to my very best!
Thank you all for helping me make this decision.
